nice catch. Went out yesterday near the shipping channel, infront of mewstone. Wind was blowing real hard, but managed to bag some nice BIG school whiting and a 43cm king george all in 3m of water. Plenty of herring around too, but most were pretty small.

Southern Blue

Sun, 2009-11-15 20:39

Fishcrazy,was only a little Southern Blue around 4-5 kilo

Colin,it was ok till around noon,then the wind came in pretty quick and put whitecaps everywhere made it hard trying to run a spread of lures. We dropped back to 2 lures after that rather than risk the tangles...

I hope the Deckie got into them today Paul.

That is a good sign Rick. It would be good to get some tuna action happening while the ban is on.
